I love and hate Negan defenders

Before we get into the meeting and potatoes, I am a Negan defender. I love Negan. He’s my favorite newer character, but here’s the thing is that I agree 99% that if we were following him, we would not be as pissed off at him as we are now because we follow Rick, he’s a villain to us. I agree that wholeheartedly only thing is that we could not pretend that Rick and Megan are the same person until we get a character where the person is exactly like Rick. I will not hear the perspective defense. It is super clear that Negan is a worst person than Rick is Rick would not become a tyrant. He would not have used a bat and bashed someone’s brains out in front of everyone for a lesson, he would not steal from communities

I wish that we got more villains that were just like our group but because we were of a different perspective, they were the bad guys because the two big bats of the show were tyrants they were Pillager and they were rapists well at least Negan was I don’t know about the governor, but I will say kind of weird that he has a bunch of chains and rooms where chairs can be tied up but I digress

It is clear that Negan and the governor we’re both awful people at the time. They were not like Rick. Yes, Rick did crazy stuff for protection of the group. That’s a given. It’s the apocalypse however Negan did stuff for the love of the game some of the stuff that he did excluding what he does to the group because you could technically see that as retaliation but bashing someone’s head in front of everyone is a bit much but most of the stuff that he does his free time is as awful no matter what
And this is coming from a defender cause I love Negan. I love that he was the one character and villain that got redeemed, and I love the character he has become, but we cannot pretend that he wasn’t an awful person there’s been people genuinely saying that if we were in his perspective, we wouldn’t see him as the villain which, although most of it that’s true, but for the stuff that he does behind closed doors that we would not like
